《用Python写网络爬虫》——2.2 三种网页抓取方法 re / lxml / BeautifulSoup
需要注意的是，lxml在内部实现中，实际上是将CSS选择器转换为等价的XPath选择器。
从结果中可以看出，在抓取我们的示例网页时，Beautiful Soup比其他两种方法慢了超过6倍之多。实际上这一结果是符合预期的，因为lxml和正则表达式模块都是C语言编写的，而BeautifulSoup``则是纯Python编写的。一个有趣的事实是，lxml表现得和正则表达式差不多好。由于lxml在搜索元素之前，必须将输入解析为内部格式，因此会产生额外的开销。而当抓取同一网页的多个特征时，这种初始化解析产生的开销就会降低，lxml也就更具竞争力。这真是一个令人惊叹的模块！
2.Scrapy Selectors 选择器
https://doc.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/selectors.html#topics-selectors
- BeautifulSoup缺点：慢
- lxml:基于 ElementTree
- Scrapy seletors: parsel library，构建于 lxml 库之上，这意味着它们在速度和解析准确性上非常相似。
.css() .xpath() 返回 SelectorList，即 a list of new selectors
.extract() .re() 提取 过滤 tag data
import scrapy
C:\Program Files\Anaconda2\Lib\site-packages\scrapy\__init__.py
from scrapy.selector import Selector
C:\Program Files\Anaconda2\Lib\site-packages\scrapy\selector\__init__.py
from scrapy.selector.unified import *
C:\Program Files\Anaconda2\Lib\site-packages\scrapy\selector\unified.py
from parsel import Selector as _ParselSelector
class Selector(_ParselSelector, object_ref):
>>> from scrapy.selector import Selector >>> from scrapy.http import HtmlResponse
如此导入 Selector，实例化 Selector 的时候第一个参数是 HtmlResponse 实例，如果要通过 str 实例化 Selector ，需要 sel = Selector(text=doc)
xx
In [926]: from parsel import Selector In [927]: Selector? Init signature: Selector(self, text=None, type=None, namespaces=None, root=None, base_url=None, _expr=None) Docstring: :class:`Selector` allows you to select parts of an XML or HTML text using CSS or XPath expressions and extract data from it. ``text`` is a ``unicode`` object in Python 2 or a ``str`` object in Python 3 ``type`` defines the selector type, it can be ``"html"``, ``"xml"`` or ``None`` (default). If ``type`` is ``None``, the selector defaults to ``"html"``. File: c:\program files\anaconda2\lib\site-packages\parsel\selector.py Type: type

doc=u""" <div class="quote" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/CreativeWork"> <span class="text" itemprop="text">“I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”</span>>> <span>by <small class="author" itemprop="author">Thomas A. Edison</small> <a href="/author/Thomas-A-Edison">(about)</a> """ sel = Selector(doc) sel.css('div.quote') [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' quote ')]" data=u'<div class="quote" itemscope itemtype="h'>]
3.使用 scrapy shell 调试

G:\pydata\pycode\scrapy\splash_cnblogs>scrapy shell "http://quotes.toscrape.com/page/1/"
3.1Xpath VS CSS
对比
| CSS | Xpath | 备注 | |
| 含有属性 | response.css('div[class]') | response.xpath('//div[@class]') | css可以简写为 div.class 甚至 .class，div#abc 或 #abc 则对应于id=abc |
| 匹配属性值 | response.css('div[class="quote"]') | response.xpath('//div[@class="quote"]') | response.xpath('//small[text()="Albert Einstein"]') |
| 匹配部分属性值 | response.css('div[class*="quo"]') | response.xpath('//div[contains(@class,"quo")]') | response.xpath('//small[contains(text(),"Einstein")]') |
| 提取属性值 | response.css('small::attr(class)') | response.xpath('//small/@class') | css里面text排除在attr以外，所以不支持上面两个过滤text？？？ |
| 提取文字 | response.css('small::text') | response.xpath('//small/text()') | |
使用
In [135]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]').extract_first() In [122]: response.css('small.author').extract_first() Out[122]: u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>' In [136]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]/text()').extract_first() In [123]: response.css('small.author::text').extract_first() Out[123]: u'Albert Einstein' In [137]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]/@class').extract_first() #class也是属性 In [124]: response.css('small.author::attr(class)').extract_first() Out[124]: u'author' In [138]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]/@itemprop').extract_first() In [125]: response.css('small.author::attr(itemprop)').extract_first() Out[125]: u'author'
class 是一个特殊属性，允许多值 class="row header-box"
# 匹配多值中的某一个值
In [228]: response.css('div.row') Out[228]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' row ')]" data=u'<div class="row header-box">\n '>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' row ')]" data=u'<div class="row">\n <div class="col-md'>] In [232]: response.css('div.ro') Out[232]: []
# 整个class属性值，匹配全部字符串 In [226]: response.css('div[class="row"]') Out[226]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class = 'row']" data=u'<div class="row">\n <div class="col-md'>]
In [240]: response.xpath('//div[@class="row header-box"]')
Out[240]: [<Selector xpath='//div[@class="row header-box"]' data=u'<div class="row header-box">\n '>]
# 整个class属性值，匹配部分字符串 In [229]: response.css('div[class*="row"]') Out[229]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(@class, 'row')]" data=u'<div class="row header-box">\n '>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(@class, 'row')]" data=u'<div class="row">\n <div class="col-md'>] In [230]: response.xpath('//div[contains(@class,"row")]') Out[230]: [<Selector xpath='//div[contains(@class,"row")]' data=u'<div class="row header-box">\n '>, <Selector xpath='//div[contains(@class,"row")]' data=u'<div class="row">\n <div class="col-md'>] In [234]: response.css('div[class*="w h"]') Out[234]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(@class, 'w h')]" data=u'<div class="row header-box">\n '>] In [235]: response.xpath('//div[contains(@class,"w h")]') Out[235]: [<Selector xpath='//div[contains(@class,"w h")]' data=u'<div class="row header-box">\n '>]
3.2提取数据
- 提取data
selectorList / selector.extract()，extract_frist()
selector.extract() 返回一个str，selector.extract_first() 报错
selectorList.extract() 对每一个selector执行selector.extract，返回 list of str，selectorList.extract_frist() 取前面list的第一个。
- 提取data同时过滤
selectorList / selector.re(r'xxx')，re_frist(r'xxx')
selector.re() 返回 list，selector.re_first() 取第一个str
selectorList.re() 对每一个selector执行selector.re，每个list结果（注意并非每个selector都会match）合并为一个list，selectorList.re_first()取前面合并list的第一个str。。。
使用 extract
In [21]: response.css('.author') #内部转为 xpath，返回 SelectorList 实例 Out[21]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>] In [22]: response.css('.author').extract() #提取上面的 data 部分，对 SelectorList 中的每个 Selector 执行 extract()， Out[22]: [u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">J.K. Rowling</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Jane Austen</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Marilyn Monroe</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Andr\xe9 Gide</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Thomas A. Edison</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Eleanor Roosevelt</small>', u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Steve Martin</small>'] In [23]: response.css('.author').extract_first() #只取第一个，可能返回 None ,可能报错 response.css('.author')[0].extract() Out[23]: u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>' In [24]: response.css('.author::text').extract_first() #定位到 tag 内部的 text Out[24]: u'Albert Einstein'
使用 re
In [46]: response.css('.author::text')[0] Out[46]: <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]/text()" data=u'Albert Einstein'> In [47]: response.css('.author::text')[0].re(r'\w+') Out[47]: [u'Albert', u'Einstein'] In [48]: response.css('.author::text')[0].re_first(r'\w+') Out[48]: u'Albert' In [49]: response.css('.author::text')[0].re(r'((\w+)\s(\w+))') #按照左边括号顺序输出 Out[49]: [u'Albert Einstein', u'Albert', u'Einstein']
